The Great Led Zeppelin Wine Pairing is a series of “wine and music pairings,” created by noted restaurateur and viticulturist Joe Bastianich and writer-musician Mike Edison, along with writer and wine expert David Lynch.〔(Led Zeppelin Wine Tasting - A.V. Club )〕〔(Whole lotta Joe - TheAustralian )〕〔(Rock 'N' Wine - NewYorkPost )〕〔(It's a Red Zeppelin - NewYorkPost )〕 Bastianich and Lynch are both recipients of the James Beard Award. The idea was formed when Bastianich and Edison were pondering how to pair the songs of Led Zeppelin with various wines. "Our passion for wine is only rivaled by our passion for Zeppelin,” said Bastianich, and encouraged attendees to "taste with their ears and listen with their mouths."〔New York Metromix, March 18, 2009.〕 Edison, in an interview with publishing blog Galley Cat, said, "Either you see this as a hyper-intellectual exercise in promoting the lexicon of oenology as a valid critical system while simultaneously subverting it and subjecting it to ridicule—or you think it is just some dudes who want to drink some really good wine and listen to Led Zeppelin. No matter what, it is still going be the best salon since Dorothy Parker made that crack about horticulture.”〔(Galleycat.com ), March 16, 2009.〕 == Why Led Zeppelin? == Edison has explained that “Zep is the perfect band to pair with wine—maybe the only band. They have all the right qualities: They can be earthy and intense, or dark and mellow, or just insanely huge. They've got some very real, edgy twang, and some rich, complex textures. They embrace both the Old World and the New. I can't think of any other band that shows so much depth and development, both within individual songs and across entire records,” adding, that the wine pairings were both “freakishly sophisticated and patently absurd.”〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Great Led Zeppelin Wine Pairing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
